    Alison Arngrim Career

    Acting career

    After beginning a career as a child model and actress in television commercials, Arngrim rose to fame as a child star in 1974, portraying the role of Nellie Oleson on the NBC television series Little House on the Prairie.

    Ezoic

    She originally auditioned for the role of Laura Ingalls and, later, Mary Ingalls, but was instead cast in the role of antagonist Nellie Oleson. Arngrim would play the role of Nellie for seven seasons and her portrayal became a cultural reference and camp archetype for the spoiled “bad girl” throughout the 1970s.

    Years later, in one of her stand-up routines, Arngrim described playing Nellie on Little House on The Prairie as “like having PMS for seven years.” In 2002, she was honored by the Young Artist Foundation with its Former Child Star “Lifetime Achievement” Award for her work as a child actress on Little House.

    At the 2006 TV Land Awards, Arngrim tied with Danielle Spencer (‘Dee’ on What’s Happening!!) as the “Character Most in Need of a Time-out” for her role as Nellie.

    In addition to her role on Little House, Arngrim also recorded the comedy record album, Heeere’s Amy, in which she portrayed her first daughter Amy Carter. Her mother, who voiced the Kennedy children on the comedy albums of Vaughn Meader, also guest starred on the album.

    After leaving Little House, Arngrim appeared in guest-starring roles on such television series as The Love Boat and Fantasy Island. She was also a frequent panelist on the short-lived NBC game show Match Game-Hollywood Squares Hour.

    Starting in 2006, she developed a successful career on stage in France, with her friend, author/director/comedian Patrick Loubatière. In 2017 in Pinehurst, North Carolina she appeared as Emily Brent in Judson Theatre Company’s production of Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None.

    Philanthropy

    In addition to performing, Arngrim also devotes her time to charitable organizations. One of her inspirations for her charity work is the memory of her friend and fellow actor Steve Tracy, who played the role of Nellie Oleson’s husband, Percival Dalton, on Little House on the Prairie.

    Tracy died from complications of AIDS in 1986, after which Arngrim set her sights on becoming an activist for AIDS awareness including the organization ACT UP and working at the AIDS hotline.

    She also focuses on other issues, such as child abuse, speaking frequently for and lobbying with the group PROTECT. In 2004, Arngrim revealed on Larry King Live that she herself was an incest survivor.

    Author

    In 2010, Arngrim authored an autobiography titled Confessions of a Prairie Bitch: How I Survived Nellie Oleson and Learned to Love Being Hated. In the book, she, for the first time, publicly identified her then-teenaged brother as her childhood abuser, though the book is mostly light-hearted and received critical praise for her ability to mix humor and personal tragedy.

    She wrote and performed a stage version, which premiered at Club Fez in New York. She later performed this one-person show at Parliament House, a gay resort in Orlando, Florida.
